3 Ways to Enjoy the Water in Fort Myers & Sanibel

• May 15, 2016

 

When the temperature rises here in Fort Myers and Sanibel, the best way to escape the heat is to get on the water. Here are three different ways to enjoy Florida’s gorgeous waters…
 

1. Catch a Fish from a Kayak

Pine Island Sound is an angler’s paradise, and there’s no better way to fish than from a kayak! Gulf Coast Kayak offers guided kayak fishing trips with experienced instructors that will teach you how to kayak fish safely and successfully. You can expect to catch snook, redfish and spotted sea trout.
 

2. Slide and Splash

As the largest waterpark in southwest Florida, Sun Splash Family Water Park in Cape Coral offers 14 acres of water slides, pools and fun. Take a relaxing float down the Main Stream River Tube Ride or experience the high-speed excitement of the scream-worthy 457-foot Electric Slide & Power Surge. And the little ones will love the Pirate’s Cove.
 

3. Soak up a Sunset

Feeling romantic? Pure Florida runs sunset cruises out of Fort Myers. As the birds head home to roost, you can snuggle up to your loved one when the captain stops the vessel on the beautiful Caloosahatchee River for a few moments to allow you to soak up a glorious sunset. Interestingly, Pure Florida is run by father-and-son Captain Lance and Harry Julian, who are also partners in Marine Team International and Pure Image Productions. Lance and Harry Julian have helped to create some of the most memorable water scenes in film production, such as those in Titanic and Waterworld.
